Warning this is going to be long and a few names in this. I think I need to colour code!
I sort of have an update!
What a what and night WOAH.
OK, so, over a month ago, in April I think but it was definitely when I was still on my man-break, I chatted in the chatroom I go to chat to this American Hispanic guy. Now, some things about me. I'm not in the USA or from there although I've traveled there and one of my guy friends swears I'm American, even though I'm not. But - especially as in the past I had a few dates with an American Jewish guy and it was quite nice - I AM curious about American men. Some are players to say the least but some seem really cool. I've even thought at some stage I'd like to get the "attract your perfect American romantic lover" sub and see what happens LOL!
Anyway, I digress.
So we chatted and he was keen to be in touch on the phone and maybe to meet but I said no. Like I said, I was still on the man-break anyway.
We'll get back to him. I'm going to call him American guy.
I think it was on Thursday or Friday I matched with a new guy who we'll call M. M worked in America for two years, loves it talks about it and he's also traveled the world and we've exchanged a barrage of messages. Like no guy has messaged me THIS much! 4-5 long messages at once and he'll reply straight away. But I think he just wants sex but we're still a bit interested to meet and he wants to get coffee or something.
Before this, I asked F. on a date. Cos F was asking about my weekend and saying he didn't have plans so I asked him for a coffee. He said yes! We didn't get to that point but turns out F. who is pretty shy though at least at this point, is also French and said he can help me brush up on this & that might be fun. I just have to think of a public place to meet!
Then after all this I sort of had this, not horny energy but sort of like flirty energy? and I felt it needed to go somewhere so I messaged R, which is a bit mean cos R is gorgeous but R only wants sex cos of the age gap. He messaged back like RIGHT away though, which surprised me (on the dating app) and we briefly chatted but that was mean of me in a way to message him & be a bit flirty. Cos I've told him I want more than just sex. But I've never tried to lead him on or anything.
Anyway, later on, American guy got back from his work function and called me. Yes, I got very brave after inner debate and gave him my number. I've also given it to M (the travelling one) cos it's so easy to chat to him and to A (I think of A as my favourite, sort of like my crush. Like I said, R is gorgeous too, but he only wants sex - even though part of me is tempted! - so A is my favourite.
American guy and I chatted on the phone and it was so easy to chat to each other. Now, I don't know what he looks like and he doesn't know what I look like but we are both like eh let's do a blind date for the hell of it. But he is - honestly - he seems to kinda like me already. He says if he doesn't get to meet me tomorrow (work is crazy busy next week) it will be torture to wait a whole week, and at the work function he kept thinking about me and that between chatting on the site and him seeing me there again on Saturday, he had been going to that site for about a month, hoping I'd be on and he could connect with me! But again we don't know if either of us will be attracted, but I've said can we just be friends if not.
He has all these ideas for dates that I'm really keen on too!
And THEN! On Friday I sent A (my fave so far) a message cos we message too and one of the things I said was "Do you know we've been messaging for a month now" I felt inspired to say that, not sure why.
Well, last night, with all THIS going on! A messaged back and replied to my messages and one of the things he said was something like wow we've been messaging a month? I think it would be a good idea to meet up at some stage, what do you think?
I felt SO excited when I saw that. Cos I've wanted to meet A. In his photos he mostly looks very cute but also his messages are always so lovely and sweet to me. He asks about my day and says about his and if he's busy with work so he doesn't message for a day or two, he apologizes. And as I think I've said, he text speaks to friends on Instagram, but with me it's more formal, normal language. (that can be a sign someone is trying to impress, it might not be though.)
Ironically, like I said, work next week is extra stressful and busy and I've also maybe trying to secure a new job elsewhere too, or just get more concrete details about the job offer, really. So these guys may need to wait. Or not. Maybe I can find a way to juggle all this! Speaking of juggling, last night i was chatting with a few of them almost at the same time!
But the week after that I'm on half term (I'm a teacher) with a whole week off.
Anyway, that's my update. I haven't met any of them yet, though American guy is keen to meet today even if just for coffee.
But he, A, M and F all want to meet me! R does too, but as he only wants sex, he will probably have to dip out! Anyway that's my update.
The only other thing is I've felt more desire to eat healthy and try to lose weight over this last week or two. So that's another change I've noticed.
I sort of have an update!
